“Ms. E” knows first-handedly the obstacles that can bombard and hinder life, and threaten every hope, vision, dream, and even desire to think about them. She also knows the difference it can make to have an open/genuine ear and heart to listen and offer wise counsel.
Of the belief that we are not one- dimensional beings, Ms. E subscribes wholeheartedly to the belief and practice of balance in the body, mind, soul, and spirit connection in achieving peace and satisfaction in our personal and career lives.
Ms. E has worked in the field of human services for more than 30 years and has been in private practice for 21 years.
A native of California, Ms. E attended undergraduate school at the University of California at Davis, earning a Bachelors of Science degree in Human Development. She received a Master's degrees in Marriage, Family & Child Counseling from Azusa Pacific, and is a Licensed Marriage, Family & Child Therapist.
Having worked in various agencies and positions as a Social Worker in the Department of Social Services, Counselor in Residential Treatment, and Therapist in Day Treatment, Sexual and Substance Abuse and Outpatient Mental Health Programs, Ms. E opened her private practice in 1992. During the same time she founded For A Child's H.E.A.R.T., Inc., a non-profit organization for foster youth.
